Talk to the hand, Hillary.
At the rate we`re going, Laura Bush will run on her experience in 2012.

We already have a president who will do anything to win....tell any lie, break any law, debase any opponent. George W. Bush did a fine job of exploiting our fears, exaggerating his accomplishments and defining those who didn`t agree. We were either with him and America or against him and America. Bush had Frank Luntz focus groups, the Karl Rove trashing machine, inside-the-beltway kingmakers and a malleable press. Nothing was going to stand between him and what he thought was rightfully his for the taking, including Iraq and our rights. Enter Team Hillary.

I don`t know who Clinton`s drama coach is, but he/she deserves an ovation after Hillary`s 4-star performance last week. She could have been a perfect Limbaugh sidekick the way she twirled and mocked. Rush did it to someone with Parkinson`s disease, Clinton chose hopeful Obama supporters. Same shit, different day. Even Bill Clinton...."America`s first Black president"....got in on the act. After all, he`s known for defending his wife`s honor, right? Then it`s surrogate time with spin spun pumped out on a virtual conveyor belt. Obama isn`t ready. Obama is an empty suit. Obama loves NAFTA. Obama is a Muslim. Obama has no experience. John McCain has experience. Here`s a picture of Obama in Terrorist Garb.

Here`s what I think happened. While Hillary Clinton was fixated on an I`M TOUGH ENOUGH appeasement ritual for the right, she didn`t see the crowd gathering on the left. That`s where Obama and the gazillion fed-up Americans were. They had a copy of their Constitution, photos of all the dead soldiers and a long list of empty promises.

The invasion of Iraq was a deal breaker for many, many Americans, even some long-time Clinton supporters. My voting decision tomorrow will be based on principle, not misguided loyalty and no amount of Lanny Davis/James Carville spin will change my mind.

4. So you are going to vote for General Clark tomorrow?
You said your vote will be based on Principle. You said that after four paragraphs of bullshit and nonsense. Please share with this combat zone veteran, the date and time and place when Barack Obama voted against the IWR. Don't tell me he has always been against the war, tell me about his vote. Hillary Clinton was opposed to the Vietnam war makes as much sense.
